Currants are rather brisk, and may be reglrded is. per cwt. higher than they have been. No variation in any kind of Raisins, Figs, or French Fruit. Notwithstanding the prophecies of Mr. Murphy (" cold Murphy," as he is termed by many) of "lain" and " change able" weather, the frost still continues with undiminished se vmity, and there is now every probability of there k.ing no alteration Ithtil after the new moon, which does not take place until Saturday week, the 24•. h instant. On Tues.day the thermometer at the receiving house in Hyde Park varied from 20 to 31 degrees. Yesterday morning it was again 20 de grees; qt twelve o'clock it had risen to 34 30 degrees, but by four o'clock it had again fallen to 32 degrees, and at eight o'clock last evening the mercury stood at 28 degrees, with a strong cutting easterly wind. The SERPENTINE was very fully attended, but no person of any note was observed thereon. The ice, in consequence of the large number of skaters by whom it has for the last three days been crowded, is much fractured, and very dangerous. No accidents, however; occurred. KENSINGTON GARDENS were also much throng-ed . the day. In the afterno on , a man o f respectable . about 40 years of age, wh o f or t h ree or f our hop 40 pearance , : L much science, attract e d grea t not i ce b e If skated with wit var signs of free - waist a crimson belt, ornarn , ”:!: u ' ishavitvr round hi s of glazed blue c a li co, masonry, and su;:TMZ l lcd from hi s neck h a sort ious of cuitass, made on which was inscribed in large charac ters—" Whoever wishes to enjoy good health must not go to Mr. sufgeon, —, who is a villain, a forger of wills, and a freemason's murderer." Several ladies were also on the ice. In ST. JA NIES'S PARK. the attendance was exceedingly nu merous, large numbers of respectable persous being attracted b; the fineness of the day, and by her Majesty's levee. The North Bank was much crowded by elegantly-dressed ladies, by whom the Queen was enthusiastically received during her pro gress to and from Buckingham Palace. REGENT'S PARK was •yesterday deserted, liothby the haul tan and the members of the skating club. The attendance was, however, very numerous, and no accident whatever oc curred, with the exception of a gentleman named Yates having his shoulder dislocated by a fall. The River above the bridges, which on Friday last was en tirely free from ice, was yesterday again nearly covered: At Putney-bridge the ice extended all across the stream, and the navigation was consequently quite obstructed, and, should the frost continue a day or two longer, the upper part of the river for the second time, be frozen over. There is no undertakingerf the present day which is more likely to benefit the public ilein the intended Landing-pier at Deal. It would he difficult to point out a place more open to improvement than that once wealthy and pros perous town. Situated near the north-east point of the county of Kent, at about seven miles from Dover, and the same distance from Sandwich, it offers natural ad vantages cf the first importance to the public. Ships bound to and from London and foreign parts usually stop at Deal. If outward bound they take in fresh pro visions, and if coining in, they put letters and passengers adhere ; in short, it /filers facilities of the greatest rid. vantage to the rnercaetile world, but its open and ex. posed situation has long been the subject of deep regret. 'The wind blowing hard from the north-east rolls in a surf upon the beach which renders it almost impossible for boats to land—at the same time vessels in distress look in vain for shelter. The Downs, though a noted road-stead for ships, and a rendezvous for our fleets, afford little protec. tion in a southerly gale. If a vessel should part her cable, • which is no uncommon occurrence, her best chance is to haul round for Margate Roads. Ramsgate may sometimes shelter, but the attempt to get in is often attended by dee iter , These facts prove the want of a pier at Deal, under efeich re,-, sea may ride out the storms and gales which tee often prevail on the Kentish coast. 'Vito consideration of the diffieulties we have enumerated has induced seine of the most influential men of the present day, acting under the sanction of the Lords or the Admiralty, and patronised by his Grace !L e Duke of Ve t .i. lington, to project the erection of a IN . :, „iiioh„ will die landing at Deal for pass.‘igere: neighbourie";"eod of safe that town presents it is eiZeown, equal, if not - superior advan por taffies, es, as a s: simer residence, to any of the surrounding sea ," and' a regular steam-boat communic a ti on b etween it and the metropolis, aided by a safe and commodious landin g _ p will , no doubt, make Deal and its env i rons preferable to the more crowded watering-places. To pr omote t h ese im portant objects a Company has been formed, and arrange', meats made with the Commercial Steam-packet Cernteny for the daily conveyance of passengers to and from the eeetropolis, as soon as the landing-place shall be provide?. With respect to the pier, it is intended to be constructed be tween the Adelaide Baths and the reey al Hotel, that point being most central, and likely fee afford the utmost advantages to the whole population Deal. \%'c understand that a largo capital has been subscribed, and this important work will soon commence, under the direction of Mr. Rennie and other able engineers. When we reflect on the utility of this undertaking, we may consider the men who accomplish it the real benefactors to their country. Thousands of lives have been lost for avant of such a landing-place, and every friend to humanity will hail with joy the prospect which now opens of the accomplishment of the desired object. The people of Deal and the towns and villages along this part of the coast are bold and active in affording assistance to vessels which may be stranded, or in seeing goods and people from wrecks, consequently this pier will prove of incalculable service in aid of their exertions. The following is the letter of his Grace the Duke of Wel lington upon „he subject. It is proper to remark that th letter ;e in answer to ano th er f rom a d eputat i on of the Provi e feenal Committee, and that it breathes in every respect the manly and straightforward and business-spirit o; the noble mind fram which it emanated : (COPY.) •" London, Feb. 9, 1839. " have had the honour of receiving your letter of this day. I received, some days ago, that of the 31st Jan., 1.1438, together with the Report of Sir John Rennie and his Ba.other, Of the 23d Nov., 1837, regarding a Pier at Deal. " It appears that the Lords of the Admiralty, the Members for Sandwich and Deal, and other authorities of the place, had approved of this Plan and Report. " There is no public Board so much interested in the com munications of the Downs as the Admiralty. The Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports must feel an interest in every arrangement whi.di has for its object to facilitate them. But his interest in them must be subordinate to those of the Ad u:iralty, and of the other authorities who have patronized this work. " I sincerely wish them mesas ; bat as the plan has pro ceeded so far without my knowledge, it appears to me that it would be presuaiptueui in me to pretend to give an opinion upon it. I beg leave, therefore, to decline to give you and the Gentlemen who have desired to see me the trouble of pay leg me a visit. " In the course of time, the Bill must come into the House of Parliament of which I am a Member, when I will give every attention to the subject that may be in my power, and will perform my duty in such a mantle.. as I hope may be most beneficial to the interests of the town of Deal.

The A-chbUop of Tuam has addressed the following letter to Lord John Russell Dublin, February 12, 1838. My LORD,—A declaration ascrileAl to Lord Lansdowne in the Freentau's Journal of this racy, has filled my mind with serious alarm for the purity and freedom of the Catlinlic gion in Ireland. It is needless to allude to the statement of his intention to forward the suggestions recommended for adoption by thti Education Commissioners. At present I have not le!sure, on the eve of my return to my diocese, to enter into all the bearings of the - question of the system of education with a fullness deserving its import t'uice. It is not less vital than the- questions regarding the veto on the appointment of Catholic Bishops, or the pen sioning of the Catholic Clergy, which have long awl re peateuly occupied the deliberations of the Catholic Bishops. It must then excite the surprise, and alarm the fears of the faithful, that any Minister should declare his resolve to act on a report essentially connected with the religion of the Irish people, on whicl: the Bishops could not live pronounced• an opinion, and into the grounds of which they had not time to inquire. I should therefore beg of your Lot dship to pause in the career of Legislation until the sentiments of the Catholic Bishops and Clergy of Ireland arc sufficiently ascertained on the benefits or evils of Pie system, and its practical operation. I take occasion to address your Lordship thus briefly, to re more a delusion under %hien many members of the Legisla ture manifestly labour. They seem to be under an impression that it is competent for theta, through the agency of boards cf their selection, to assume and exercise complete control over the education—even the religious education—of the people. That is an error which would be as fatal to the interests of the Stae as it would be to the purity of the Catholic religion. It is but right to acquaint your Lordship that the Catholic Mshops, and the Catholic Bishops alga c, have the right to regulate the choice of the books out a f which the faithful are to draw the nutriment of piety and sound doctrine. It would be a lamentable day for Ireland, that books of piety were to be regulated by the devotional taste of those along to whom any Government would wish to confide the spiritual care of the people. Could I transfer this tight, or delegate my duty of vigilance to - another, I should gladly resign the trust to any one or more of my brethren in the hierarchy. But every BiShop is entrusted by the Holy Ghost, and by the successor of St. Peter, with the peculiar case of his oan flock. I beg leave, therefore, to assure Lord Stanley, and others who would wish to subject the Catholic church to the influence of the Ministers of the day, that no authority on earth save the Pope shall I submit Cie books from which the children in my diocese shall derive their religious instruction. Oa the dis proportioned number of Catholic and Protestant Ccinmis sioners—on the lectures to be given, in the training of the masters—on the recent numbe r o f Inspectors, and their qualifications and duties—on the want in the beard of a fair representation of the different localities in Ireland but, above all, on the mass of important evidence which I have gleaned from the volumnious reports regarding the recent education inquiry ; I shall forbear any remarks until my resumption of the subject. I must, however, not for get to remark that the attention of the public is alive to the dark and mysterious nature of the office which is to ba exercised by those foreign functionaries, some of the new inspectors—all forsooth for the preservation of the faith of the people and the legitimate influence of their pastors; and that the Catholic clergy will not, I hope, omit to inspect the Eng. fish or Scotch puritan inspectors. In the mean time, depre cating any interference with the temporal titles or revenues of which the Protestant Bishops are so jealous ; and assuring your Lordship that it is assumed only in conformity with the primitive practice, before titles or benefices were known in the Catholic Church. I have the honour to be, your Lordship's obedient servant, k JOHN TUAM. The - Bishop of London preached at St. James's Church on Sunday afternoon ; but, owing to the severity of the weather, to a congregation not so numerous as usual. There is now in the possession of Mr. Thomas Ma;:the‘vs, of the Commercial Hotel, Carnbornc, a painting lately executed by Mr. Richard Opie, of Falmouth, of the Cornish Captain in one of his London freaks ; the subject is The Halter Pie. Some hundreds of persons having seen the painting, and not one but has passed the greatest encomiums on the abilities of Mr. Opie in producing such a striking like ness of Captain Joe. A POLITICAL SERMON.-On Sun:lay last, the Rev. Irwin, of Sandford Chapel, preached a sermon before the Lord Lieutenant in the church of St. Werburgh. Of the nature and temper of thin sermon, the public, perhaps, will judge, when they learn that the churchwardens and the minister of the parish felt themselves bound to address a letter of apology to his excellences•, in consequence of the scandalous aud.inde mt. conduct of the clergyman nho had desecrated the pulpit of this ancient chweh. We content ourselves, at present, with stating the fact.—Dublin Evening Post ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, FEB. 12. There has been very little change in the piece market to-day, and prices remain the same as last week. The wool market has been extremely dull, and very few sales have been made, although the last week's pt ices have been fully maintained.-- Madchester Guardian. STATE OF TRADE.—Owing to the return of severe frost, which has again closed the navigation that had been partially opened by the thaw of last week, the demand for goods and yarn of all descriptions was exceedingly limited yes terday ; and the little business done, was, in some cases, at It slight decline on last week's prices.—Manchester Guardian. A considerable crowd of well-dressed persons as sembled opposite the great gates of the New Palace yester day, at two o'clock, to witness the departure of her Majesty for St. James's Palace to hold her first Levee for the season. The Queen was in her private state carriage, escorted by a party of Life Guards, and the Royal Cortege proceeded at a quick trot along the mall, and entered by the garden gate COLONIAL MAItKETS. To.day we hare not a single public sale of East or West India pro duce, and I,ut little advertised for to-morrow, the principal being Ben gal and Havannat Sugar and some Silicas. To-day British plantation Sugar soils with more briskness, and prices rather stiffer than they were, but Lot higher. In Coffee there is a fair business doing privately in Mocha and Ceylon, both of which are securing very good prices. Tea continue.; in good demand, and Spic,s arc very firm. The imports of Colonial pro duce are very slender. There is nothing whatever fresh in Canadian pro duce, and as long as this severe weather lasts business must be much suspended. COAL MAR S.

This was an The To-• •i n Tor a breach of promise of marriage. this case wls Miss Jane Watki n , a young ...man, who had resided at Peterborough, in the county of Northampton, the greater part of her life ; and the defendant, Mr. William Daniels, oho was between 50 and 60 years of age, was the widower of the proprietor of the Angel, one of the principal inns and posting-houses of the town. It ap peared that the plaintiff, whose age was between 29 and 30, was one of a family of six children, five girls and one boy, and that their father resided chiefly at Bourne, a small town in Lincolnshire, where he carried on business as a journey- man saddler; but that the daughters lived with their mother at Peterborough, some of them being there engaged in the business of milliners and dressmakers. Two of the plain tiff's sisters and her father were the principal witnesses pro• duced on behalf of the plaintiff'; and the substance of their testimony was, that sometime in 1831 the plaintiff had born engaged by the def'endant to live at hi; hotel in the capacity of housekeeper, and that she went there and filled that situation fur several years, living as one of the family ; that in the course of that time, after the lapse of about a year, the defendant made repeated professions of attachment to the plaintiff; that subsequently she was brought to bed of a child by defendant, and at his house, which, however, she left about a fortnight afterwards, as soon as she had suffi ciently recovered, and returned to her father's house. That was in 1833, and the defendent was then in town. The de fendant upon his return behaved with great affection towards plaintiff, and upon one occasion had said to her, " Don't cry my girl ; wait till you get strength again, and then I'll take you to church, and make you my wife." Subsequently, in 1837, the defendant expressed a desire that she should go to London, and said that it' she would go to town, he would come to her, and marry her in a month. After the plaintiff's arri val in town,- the defendant for some time kept up an affec tionate correspondence with lwr ; but all his affection ap peared soon to cease. Ilis letters, grew colder-and less fre quent, and the plaintiff, having lost all hope, resorted to the present mode of obtainining compensation for the injury which she had sustained from the non-fu'filment of the defendant's promise. Mr. Servant \VTLDE addressed the jury for the defendant. The jury retired for about an hour, and returned a verdict fcr the p!aintili—Damages, 400/. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARY LE B 0 NE. . _ The public mind has been greatly excited throughout this neighbourhood in consequence of the extraordinary disclosures made at this office on the examination of Robert itriers, who carried on business .as a linendraper, &c., at 28, High -street, Marvlebone, and who was charged, on suspicion, of having wilfully set his premises on fire, and remanded to Monday. Many persons consider this fire as a key to others which have lately taken place in the metropolis, and several tradesmen in the neighbourhood yesterday came forward to state to the Magistriee, Mr. llawrANsoN, what they knew relative to the aff lir which was under investigation. Among. other things it was related by a tradesman living nea►ly opposite the pri sioner's house, that, about a month prior to the fire, the pri soner carne to his shop and purchased a quantity of strong. packing-paper, which he paid for at the time. Ile afterwards had, at various times, remarked hackney -coaches stop at a late hour of the night at the prisoner's house, one of which ha saw convey away some large parcels. After adverting to other suspicious circumstances, he proceeded to re late, that, fur some time previous to the fire, the scantiness of the prisoner's stock had been noticed by himself as well as other persons, and a lad named Cottrell, who formerly lived with the prisoner, could, he thought, throw a considerable light upon the affair. Mr. RAWLINSON-Where is this lad to be found ? Witness —He is living at No. 10, Nottingham-street, near the office. Mr. RA: LINSON (to Duck, an officer)—Go and fetch hint here, if possible. The officer went, and shortly returned with the boy and his father, who became answerable for his son's appearance on Monday next. Mr. RAWLINSON— I remember a warrant was applied for against a man named fliers, and refused, on the ground that the case was about to undergo investigation in the Court of Queen's Bmcb. Is he the same man ? Witness—lle is. The case was simply this. Minis held a bill accepted by a person named Bowler foe 4101. The bill not beit , honoured, fliers sued th e d e f en d an t i n t h e C ourt of Queen's Bench, and it came on for trial on the ith of December last. The de fence was that the bill was accepted for 101. only, and that the words "four hundred and" had been subsequently written. The Jury being of this opinion, a verdict for the defendant was the consequence. A newspaper containing a report of the trial was here handed to the Magistrate. M. RAW JANSON told the witness that he had better draw up a written statement of theSe facts, and forward it to M. Rickards, the Solicitor of the Insurance Company. The witness then left the office, promising to do so. It is said that the Insurance Office is already in possession of very important information, and that they are determined to go on with the CASC. CASE OF CHILD-MURDER AT ISLINGTON. Yesterday afternoon an investigation, which lasted several hours, took place at the Board-room of Islington .Workhouse, before Mr. Stirling, and a very intelligent Jury, on view of the body of a female infant, which was discovered in a naked and bleeding condition in the street, at a late hour, during one of the most inclement nights of last week. Mr. Thomas Thurston, bootmaker, of Cress street, Isling ton, about half-past nine o'clock on the night of Wednesday, the ith instant, was passing through Payne-street, Islington, in company with his wife, when they heard the cries of an in fa::t before them. Immediately afterwards witness discovered the infant, the subject of the present inquiry, laying on the foot pavement, quite naked, and covered with mud. There was an effusion of blood from the navel-strng. The pour babe was crying in the most heartrending manner. Witness, recovering from the shock that such a sight produced, ran off for assistance, and met a policeman, who accompanied him back to the spot. A . female, who was passing, took the child in her apron, and hurried with it to the station-house on Islington-green, where Mr. Scruple, the parish surgeon, promptly attended. Mr. Robert Scruple, the parish surgeon, saw the child on being brought to the station-house. It was quite naked, and there was a severe bruise on the left side of the head. Blood was issuing from the navel-string, which he secured. It had been torn asunder. It was a full-grown child. He continued to see it two or three times daily until its death, which took p l a ce on Sunday morning. Witness is decid e dl y o f op i n i on that the death of the unfortunate infant seas caused by exno sure to cold—the injury of the head —and the to_•glect exix rienced at the time of the birth. The Jury returned a verdict of—Wilful Murder, against some person or persons unknown.
